Hey I just picked up a 97 eagle talon tsi awd a few days back and I love the thing. Unfortunately I am having a little issue when I get to about 4-5k rpms it kinda pops or hesitates right when the boost starts to kick. I thought it might have been a boost leak but it does not seem like I am losing any power it just hesitates. It wants to go and it rips in first but the other gears it hesitates and doesn't feel like it's at its full potential. It's got a 6 bolt swap and it was also burning oil but when I pulled the valve cover plate off, there were puddles of oil around the spark plug wires but the plugs were pretty dry even though the o rings are completely shot. The previous owner also said someone he let borrow it put regular gas in it... not sure how many times. She for sure needs a good clean.
Just looking for tips or advice from someone that's experienced this too or just any advice is welcome
Cant wait to get her running good again
